    i7 930 build or i5 750 build?

    I recently had to make the choice between 1156 and 1366 and went with an I7-930. PC will be used primarily for video editing though... Got the I7-930 for $200 at Micro Center so that helped with the price difference.

    HP lp3065 A8 & A4 - Difference?

    Maybe they "bin" these, lol. Anyway, I bought mine through pcnation.com, who had the best price at the time w/free 3 day Fedex shipping. Also, I was very happy with the way they handled replacement of one of the LP3065s. Here's link to the HP pixel policy in case you need it...

    HP lp3065 A8 & A4 - Difference?

    I have two LP3065s... had to go through 3 new ones and 1 refurb before I settled on these two. The product numbers on mine just have EZ320A next to the product number, no "4" or "8". The ones I got were tagged "Smart Buys" and priced cheaper than the non Smart Buy LP3065s... they are brand...

    HP LP3065 and dead pixels

    Sharing a current situation I have going with HP LP3065's... I purchased two 30" Hewlett Packard LP3065 monitors from PCNation on 12/13/07. Both have pixel defects. One has a fully dead pixel on top left corner, and a dead green subpixel along top middle edge... not very obvious. I can live...

    The price difference is about $100 - 150 U.S. What sources are you getting the HP prices from that would deliver to your area?

    CRT: G520P or P1230 (FE2141SB/FE2111SB?)

    G520 +1 I have a FP2141SB and two G520's. If I *had* to chose, I'd take one of my G520's over the FP2141SB, although it's a good monitor too.

    Silverstone OP-750 (60 12+ AMPS!) Buzz

    Glad I found this thread. I was considering the OP 750 or DA 750. Now I'll get the PC P&C Silencer 750. Buzzing PSU = unacceptable. Silverstone's handling of this unacceptable. Blackstone, in your next email to Silverstone, send a link to this thread.

    My good or bad luck...Dell 3007 Advice?

    In my area, the stuff UPS delivers is always trashed. I spend the extra money and always use Fedex whenever I have the option. If I have a choice of retailers, their carrier factors in to who I buy from too.

    Got my HP LP3065 up and running...

    How does running 96 dpi at native res on the lp3065 compare to 96 dpi on a 24" LCD @ native res, with regard to the size of desktop icons and sizing set at "normal" in apps? Some apps I use don't have resize options, and I want to stay with 96 dpi. Looking at buying some of these to add to my...

    Dell E1705 Light Leakage Question

    The light leakage is common, if not normal on e1705 screens. The LG screens seem to have the best reputation for quality. Dell uses at least 3 suppliers for the E1705 screens. If it doesn't impact your normal usage, don't worry about it. If you're still concerned, you can get Dell to replace...

    Dell quality?

    The majority of complaints I've seen with Dells are with the basic/default standard screens (at least on the 15.4" and 17"). The screens are usable, but quality is inconsistent (light leakage, dark corners, poor viewing angles, etc.). I have an I6000 and just recently picked up a E1705 (I9400)...

    Are you using the dvi or d-sub input? If you're using d-sub input, try autoadjusting or manually adjusting the phase (under image settings).

    2405 Leans slightly to the right..

    It's the stand, not the display. Try it on another stand. This is a common "problem", try a search on the forum, you'll find you're not alone. I've used four of these displays, currently have two. The fit of the rotation peg-stop varies. The four stands for these displays varied in "levelness".

    Had to buy Opty 170 for $365 at monarch 24hr sale

    This isn't uncommon with Monarch, although it appears they're trying to clean up their act. Until they address their "overselling", I'm sticking with NewEgg and other vendors who keep their in-stock status up to date and don't mislead customers. Post your experience here...

    New Dell 2405FPW Problem

    What do you mean by crooked? Is it tilted/leaning to one side? If that's what you mean, it's pretty common for the 2405 stands to be tilted a bit.

    Thanks :) I'd say my G520s and FW900s are about equal in the color-quality arena... making this comparison based on normal everyday use and also running through a bunch of Displaymate color intensity and gray-scale test screens. That's a good point mathesar raised about the dot pitch...

    My FW900s are dead silent. My G520s have a very faint buzz, that I can only hear if I go behind the monitor and put my ear against the top of the chassis, and I have pretty good hearing.
